HI. I had a paper jam. I was careful to remove the paper via the back door (obviously not careful enough). Now I have a constant "Paper Jam 1 or No Cartridge" error msg. If I open and close the front door it starts printing again. I have to open and close the door 3 times to get piece of paper printed, then the printer automatically starts printing the same page again, rather than going to the next page in the document (I have a a PC, Windows XP, and Word). I tried re-installing the software (i think that's what I did). I am also on the look o ut for these flags I seen people writing about and I can see them. Are they those little black plastic things that pop up and down? If so, i've jiggled them a bit and they seem fine.
I love this printer! I really don't want it to die on me.
Any help is appreciated

I have the same problem. When I called helpdesk they wanted me to take it to a Samsung service center!!! I guess the service will cost more than a new printer!!
I have the same problem. has anyone solved this yet? I had a technician look it up and down and all he could come up with was maybe the cartridge is bad. But I don't want to buy a new cartridge just to find that out. I see this problem posted a few times on here but no real solutions... please help
